Chapter 675: Things Will Get Rough
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was as though Hansen had been struck by lightning; with a shiver, he was stunned in his position with the other mages behind him.
This… This…
He did not even know how long he had been astonished for; his mind was pletely blank, and he could only see Benjamin’s eyes, watching him with a spurious smile. When he came back to his senses, in a moment, his face looked as ugly as if he had swallowed dog feces.
How, how could this be?
The panic from being hit, the embarrassment and anger at being ridiculed, the unease at losing control of things… Various emotions surged up in him all at once, making his head heat up. A bomb seemed to have exploded inside his chest, shaking him up so much that he wanted to spit out a gallon of blood. He had an urge to turn and run.
It was not something he had never thought about, but he would rather die than to face such a scene.
"You… You… What is this? How can you be the director? You, you lied! You… What do you want to do? Get away! We have nothing to talk about! I…."
In a turmoil of emotions, he opened his mouth to speak furiously, but the words ing out were not clear anymore, and no one knew what it was that he wanted to express.
Seeing this, Benjamin shook his head helplessly.
"What’s the matter? When we met a few days ago, you were not like this, sir," He said slowly, "Is it very awkward? You stole our law of meditation, and yet you talked so much in front of me. If I had done something like this, I would be embarrassed to look other people in the eye."
"You… How can you… How can this be…" Mage Hansen was still staring at Benjamin, rambling away.
"Don’t be surprised. I've caught Mage Randall, so I naturally know what you guys have done," Benjamin let out a cold scoff, saying, "When I went to investigate a few days ago, of course, I knew you were telling lies at the time. You have pushed your plan forward, and preparing to announce it officially today, right?"
".....You shameless fellow, you eavesdropped on us!" A mage behind Hansen suddenly pointed at Benjamin, scolding. His face was almost red...
Benjamin laughed, "I’m so sorry, but I still think what you’ve done is even more shameless."
"Enough! What do you want to do?" Hansen finally came back to reality, and could speak properly, "You… Even if you are powerful, so what? A lot of people know that I’m going to attend this gathering, if you dare touch us, your reputation will pletely stink!"
As he spoke, he was doing his best to calm himself down.
That was right… No matter how powerful this man was, he could not possibly do anything to them.
Benjamin shrugged, saying, "Who says I’m going to touch you?"
For a moment, Hansen and the other mages furrowed their eyebrows tightly and exchanged looked, revealing uncertain and anxious expressions.
What did this guy mean?
"...Is that so? If you have no issues, then we’ll go first. People are still waiting for us there, let’s meet at the gathering."
ing back to his senses, Hansen thought that Benjamin planned to stop them at the gathering, and had only e over now to show off. Because of that, he relaxed slightly and regained his calmness, saying this.
As for when they get to the gathering… This guy had no proof, the runic law of meditation was still theirs!
"No, I’d like for you to hold on a moment." Benjamin, however, gave a gentle smile and clapped his hands.
At that moment, from beneath them, tens of mages suddenly flew up speedily, into the sky. Before Hansen and his men could react, they had surrounded them in a circle, watching Hansen and the mages with him. They did not seem very friendly.
"This… What are you doing?"
Hansen was somewhat stunned because he realized that there were many familiar faces amongst the people surrounding them.
"Mage Harry, Mage Alec… Members of the Mage Guild, since when have you been involved in the Academy of Magic? Are you not scared of losing credibility in Ferelden by doing this?"
"I’m sorry. This is an order from Her Highness the Princess."The leader of the mages spoke, however. "Benjamin has lodged a plaint saying that you have stolen the law of meditation owned by the Academy of Magic. I need you to e with me."
Hansen was shocked.
Nevertheless, he quickly came back to his senses, and said furiously, "No, this guy is lying! You have no proof whatsoever, I am being falsely accused!"
"Accused or not, just e with us and we will know." The leader said coldly, "Don’t worry, sir. If you are indeed innocent, we will let you go very quickly."
At that moment, realization dawned on Hansen as he finally understood what Benjamin was doing.
"No, we have a very important gathering to attend, I cannot go with you…"
"You don’t have to worry about this, sir. We have already sent our regards to the host of the gathering, the people from the "Shadow" Mages Organization will have to miss it because of an urgent matter," The manner in which the lead mage spoke was even more robotic than the System, "You have to e with me, this is set by the laws of the country. When a plaint is accepted, the mage involved must cooperate with us and go through at least three hours of investigation."
Hansen immediately rebutted, "This is a pletely unreasonable plaint, you have absolutely no right to demand our cooperation!"
"It cannot be said to be an unreasonable plaint. Mage Benjamin has provided to us a piece of paper, claiming it to be a letter written by Mage Randall to you, and in it is content relevant to disclosure of the law of meditation."
"What… No! That must have been forged by him, what proof does he have that it was written by Mage Randall? On what basis are you saying that it was definitely written to me?"
The mages behind Hansen were also agreeing with him, and bawled out phrases like, "That’s right!
